The Notes app apology

Fantasy Premier League forfeit ideas
You spent all season calling yourself a football expert. Now you're making the tea in full kit. Find a forfeit your mini-league will actually remember.
Free to use. No account.
Every prompt is optional.
40 ways to regret your captain pick. Choose a style, draw a forfeit and put it to the league.
40 unused prompts in this selection.
Pick Gameweek for the weekly loser or End of season for whoever finishes bottom. Filter by group chat, matchday jobs, dress-up or performances. Draw again until you find one the league agrees on; you won’t get a repeat within the round, even if you change filters.
Agree the forfeit before the scores come in, including when it happens and any budget. Use the lowest gameweek score, a head-to-head result or the final table, with a tie rule everyone knows.
Check the final scores yourselves. This is a standalone prompt generator; it doesn’t connect to FPL, calculate points, track transfers or identify the losing manager. But For Who?’s mobile game follows live football, not fantasy-league scoring.
Use your own agreed tie rule, let anyone pass and keep prompts friendly. You don’t need to enter an FPL ID or sign in. This independent tool is not affiliated with Fantasy Premier League or the Premier League. For adults aged 18 and over.
Leave it to the draw above, or pick the one your league will enjoy most.
